STRUCTURAL CALCULATIONS

Force Analysis: In this phase, all forces acting on the structural system are identified and analyzed. This includes external forces such as applied loads, reaction forces, and internal forces generated within the structure.

Moment Equilibrium: Using the principles of moment equilibrium, support reactions and load distributions within the structure are determined. This step is crucial to ensure that the structure is stable and not subject to unintended rotations.

Structural Model: A mathematical model of the structure is developed, representing the geometry and mechanical properties of the materials used. This model can be represented through differential equations or numerical methods such as finite element analysis.

Stress Analysis: Using the structural model, internal stresses—such as tension, compression, shear, and bending moments—occurring within the structure due to applied loads are calculated.

Performance Verification: Calculated internal stresses are compared against the strength limits of the materials used for the structure. This ensures that the structure is capable of withstanding the anticipated loads without failure or unacceptable deformation.

Optimization and Correction: If necessary, modifications are made to the structural design to ensure it meets performance and safety requirements. This may include adding reinforcements, modifying the geometry, or using different materials.

Documentation and Reporting: Finally, the results of the structural analysis are documented and presented in a technical report that provides a comprehensive overview of the structure’s performance and safety.

We are able to provide calculation reports according to any standard requested by the client (BS, FEM, DIN, etc.)
